I've been told earlier in this thread that sig doesn't have it together on their commander framed guns. Are is there anything difference in the government and commander framed sig guns? Anything that would make a quality difference?

That was me. I just feel and hear that their FS are really "where it's at" so to speak, but the smaller ones are great too. I'm just prejudiced toward the bigger ones. I haven't heard bad things about the commanders or anything; I haven't heard anything about them at all... But I DO hear about the FS all the time, and having shot several, I vouch for them.

Got ya. Sorry for the misunderstanding. You weren't talking bad about them, just vouching for the fs guns. Sorry I read and replied to that on my way into the shop bright and early this morning. I might go check out what the lgs has to offer in the way of sig and DW tomorrow afternoon. I tend to favor colt because they are the original but I just can't find one Im in love with. I won't buy it of I don't love it. Its too much money I've been saving for too long not to love the guns I buy. Does anyone know anything about the ruger 1911's? I've read some good things about them but like I said earlier its not a name that first comes to mind for a 1911

Imho i think theyre in the same category as wilson, nighthawk, Wesson without the inflated price. Thing of it as getting a nighthawk for a third of the price....need more be said

Yeah - I own a Sig, two Wilsons, two Dan Wessons, a Baer, and a Bob Marvel custom. The Sig isn't even in the same ballpark as any of them. I like my Sig, it's a nice throw away carry gun. I could lose it, drop it, throw on pavement and not care. But it's not equal in fit, finish or features compared to the other pistols. If you want to believe a Sig is equal to a Nighthawk - fine - but, they're not...

Personally, I don't love the whole additional inscriptions on a slide thing. Though you may find another SIG with a bit less extras for quite a few hundred dollars less as well. I paid $750 for my SIG Nitron non railed 1911 in a TacPac (3 SS magazines, speed loader and paddle holster with mag pouch). And the gun shoots better than I do.

That's kind of what I figured. Those companies are the cream of the crop there is nothing even close to them in quality. Wen I went to interview at ed brown he took my wife and I out for some range time and provided the weapons. They are far superior to anything I've ever had my hands on before. The only thing close was the nighthawk I bought my wife a couple years ago.
